Pay Attention

Pay Attention
If you’re not paying attention,
Who’re you paying?
You’re always paying someone
In this game we’re playing
Called life
But no
It’s not by Milton Bradley
So don’t be such a game piece
Make your own moves
Roll your own dice
Don’t pay for life blindly
Grifted
Robbed
And shish-kabobbed
Taken
Had
Should make you mad
But you’re not even aware
That you’ve been had
If you’re not paying attention,
Who’re you paying?
A rhetorical question
Allow me to weigh in
My thoughts
It’s something that you should know
When you keep your back turned
Can’t see your money go
Grifted
Robbed
And shish-kabobbed
Taken
Had
Should make you mad
But you’re not even aware
That you’ve been had
Pay attention
So that not everyone but you knows
To whom or where
Your money goes
It’s in your best interest
To accrue your own interest
So attention
Whom you best should pay
Make sure your money goes your way
